merlot vs. cabernet

[winoweenie]

Hi WOW, and again if you go back to my reply to Foodsters post, I was replying only in the context of the question....Cab vs. Merlot. I'm delighted you're starting to cellar some of the wine you've invested in. As far as Pinot is concerned, I assure you that acre for acre, grape for grape, and terrior vs. terrior there are 10 great Cab or Cab/Merlot based wines for every one bottle of Burgandy produced in France. That there are great Burgandies, Rhones, and Chardonnays' made is well documented. Heavens-to Bestsy, I know some great SWs' produced in Calif, but they were not part of the question. WW
